Military Statistics

 

Sino-Euro Hegemony

Per Capita GDP: Earth & Earth Orbit only - $20,000 (like the modern US)

Monthly Cost of Living for Status 0 person on Earth ($20,000x12.5 = 250,000 sqrt = 500) à $500 Credits Average Starting Wealth of Earth Character of Status 0 (500 x 30 = 15,000) $15K

 

Earth Population 43.5 Billion

Earth System Global GDP $870 trillion

Defense Budget $52.2 Trillion

Military size (all volunteer) 176,351,350 includes infantry, marines, occupation forces, fighter pilots, ship crews, nurses, drivers & etc. Does not include civilian employees, contract surgeons, technicians & etc.

70,400,000 are for combat on feet, wheels, tracks, and legs. (40%) 

105,600,000 are split between starship (and orbital defense platform) crew and pilots, fighter pilots, and Air Cavalry. (60%)

 

Ratio of Hegemony Soldiers to Population 0.40% or 4 out of every 1,000 (Current U.S. ratio is 0.50% or 5 out of every 1,000)

Average spent Per Soldier $296,590 this indicates a high quality, well maintained, and utterly modern fighting force, on land and in space, with money to burn.

Military Spending 29% Personnel, 29% Procurement, 29% Maintenance, 13% R&D (Very orthodox for modern militaries.)

Current Forces in Mars Occupation 10,729,166 this is about 6% of total military assets and personnel (for comparison current U.S. Military in Iraq is about 8% our total military)

Ratio of Hegemony Peace Keepers to Martian Citizens 1 for every 288.

 

League of Worlds

Per Capita GDP: Coalition Combined - $40,000

Monthly Cost of Living for Status 0 person of League ($40,000x12.5 = 500,000 sqrt) à $700 Credits Average Starting Wealth of League Character of Status 0 (700 x 30 = 18,000) $21K

 

League Population 3 Billion

League Combined GDP $120 Trillion

Defense Budget $12 Trillion

Military size (all volunteer) 40,540,540 includes infantry, marines, occupation forces, fighter pilots, ship crews, nurses, drivers & etc. Does not include civilian employees, contract surgeons, technicians & etc.

6,081,081 are for combat on feet, wheels, tracks, and legs. (15%) 

34,459,459 are split between starship (and orbital defense platform) crew and pilots, fighter pilots, and Air Cavalry. (85%)

Ratio of League Soldiers to Population 1.50% or 15 out of every 1,000  (Current U.S. ratio is 0.5% or 5 out of every 1,000)

Average spent Per Soldier $2,960,000 this indicates the highest percentage ratio, and per soldier spending, of any military, ever.

Military Spending 19% Personnel, 29% Procurement, 20% Maintenance, 31% R&D (Maintenance percentage is very low, but this is possible because of the introduction of partially self repairing systems in many venues.

 

Loose Breakdowns

 

Population

Hegemony: About 48 billion souls

Non-Earthbound Hegemony Population: Around 4 Billion

League: Just over 3 billion souls

Nonaligned: 1.87 billion

Total Population: 52 billion

Off Earth Total: 9 billion

 

Military

Overall odds: League military is 23% the size of Hegemony military.

Naval odds: League Navy is 33% the size of Hegemony Navy.

Unknown factor: Sentiment is very high in favor of liberating Mars and denying the Hegemony any more room for expansion. The League has restricted enrollment in it’s Armed Forces, until it could build more ships and train more officers, not to mention attempt diplomacy to avoid all out war. It’s possible the League could easily double its military size to 3.0% given enough time.

 

Merchant shipping of all sizes, types, and shapes approx: 90,000 ships
